the Enlightenment Tribe on the verge of the Industrial Revolution, led by their Commander in Chief, Destroyer of Villages, with their cannons and muskets, then planned a Final Solution. The use of the "Final Solution" implies that Washington and Hitler were morally similar - which is very wrong. Yes, both sides during the Revolutionary War in NY engaged in what's now called ethnic cleansing - that is violently driving the other off the land. It's also worth noting that that conflict actually wasn't a racial one - there were whites and Indians fighting on both sides. The "Final Solution" was in a different class - at least to most of us. A little while later, an Israeli soldier in an F-16 sends a laser-guided smart bomb into a crowded Gaza street, in a targetted assassination, to show the Others they can't stop the Jewish Orthodox colonists from seizing yet another hilltop in Samaria. It's clear you see the settlements as THE central issue in the Israel-Palestinian conflict. I think if it was, Arafat and Barak would have produced a peace agreement back in 2000.
